Doubts about the payroll’s arrears follow the league team Pelicans
Risto Kauppinen, Executive Director of the Player Association, confirms that wages have been paid on time. Pension contributions were paid after the due date.
Lahti Pelicans’ payroll ability has raised doubts, for example, in social media. The team recently ended up qualifying in the hockey league.
– The pension contributions were three weeks late, but they have also been paid, Kauppinen says.
There are three items of pension contributions per year.
According to Kauppinen, the most common clubs have delays in pension contributions and transfers to athletic funds. This season, they have not come to the association from other league clubs other than Lahti.
Pelicans, the previous two silver teams, will qualify for their league in the match starting on April 8th.
